When creating a new instance or picking a instance to join, what is a good strategy that the user could follow?
Geolocation? Language? Subject?
I think that instances kind of naturally grow to “group” a specific subset of communities, but I may be completely wrong.
Any thoughts on that are highly appreciated.
The main concern is size and culture of the Instance itself. You can’t defederate yourself from your own Instance if it changes, so if you want to be on a small one, make sure the admins plan on staying small.
I wish the instances were more “country” or content oriented. In a sense, the Lemmy NSFW does a really great job…
It’ll come. This is just the first blat of stuff people have shit out.
